Applique Bee

My applique bee met for the last time this year and I just wanted to share some of their AMG blocks and some of their quilts. Enjoy! Check out Pam's and Lena's AMG blocks too.
The blocks with the blue background were made by Ellen H.
These three blocks were made by Beverly.
Look how many beautiful blocks Jane got done this year.
These red ones were made by Shelia.
Yeah for Patti! She got all her blocks and borders done. When I talked to her last she had the top put together. The goal was to get 12 blocks done and she did it and more. You go girl!
Look at this lovely top made by Suzie. Check out the close up to see her ruched flowers.
These last three quilts were made by Ellen F. Great quilts Ellen.

This year I was trying to do the Red Delicious BOM. I got way behind but I would still go over and read Esther's blog. She does fabulous work and I won a giveaway on her blog. I don't have anything to show because it was a fabulous PDF file for a stenciled quilt pattern. You can see a picture of it here. Thanks Esther!

With Passion,
Carrie P.

  3. Wow! Your applique friends do beautiful work. The black background on the one makes the flowers stand out. I would have a hard time picking a favorite from any of the projects, though.

  8. Once again your Bee Ladies are amazing. Those AMG blocks are gorgeous. Do you think that they could be done as wool applique?
    Thanks for sharing with us.

  9. Oh, such beautiful projects. What a talented group. I love all the AMG blocks. They really inspire me to get busy on another block. Patti's blocks and borders are super. Suzie's Baltimore style quilt is so beautiful. I like how she used the fabric in her blocks. Well done. Lena's blocks were wonderful as well. Congratulations to everyone in the group.

  22. Holy Cow that is some kind of wonderful show you put on here! Wished I could be a part of your guild.

    I'm about an hour away from finishing my AMG block from Oct. I didn't get mine finished in time because I went to the Des Moines Quilt Expo this past week. There were several AMG quilts there.
